Looking amazing as always. Must be a lot more fun to drive! Love your Civics man, especially the red one. Congrats on the turbo, big accomplishment! Only thing I don't like is the hood prop, but thats personal preference. I dunno why, just never liked it. Props man!!!

Just amazing. How much boost? Has it been on the dyno yet?

pls 10-31-2010 03:02 PM

Nope, still need to get it Tune. Don't have time to go get the car tune, it just been setting in the Garage.(maybe next week or so) And i'm not going to be boosting that much, just about 6-7psi and i'm just going to do a Conservative tune as well.

Scott53092 11-02-2010 08:03 PM

Aw disappointing, looks uneven. Get coilovers now lol. Jealous of your rimns though, I want a set in gold. Local wants $700 for a brand new set with brand new tires. I don't want to fork out that much money though lol. Old school gold rims with fat ass lip with low offset ftw!

Damn, thats a GOOD buy $700 with tires...GO FOR IT!!!!!!!!

Forty04 11-03-2010 03:50 AM

I disagree with the lowering comments above, you've got a great, raked stance as is.

This car kinda makes me love Civics again, well done so far!

Kenny-g 11-03-2010 02:20 PM

PLS, dont be neglecting the black sedan now...in fact id be more than happy to take good care of her for ya ;) Just playin but i really love that one a lot more than the red one idk why i just do :D Personal mindset thing I guess. But the red looks good on this one and now it's snailed so its even more amazing ha

Keep up all the good work sir!!!

Clean clean clean clean clean

The only thing that bugs the hell out of me is the hood not lining up. Is that by accident or design?

Scott53092 11-19-2010 06:24 PM

^ On the previous page he had that in an update. Spaced it himself.

Did you ever get this dyno tuned? Wonderin what numbers you made.

Also you need 5 lug. That's the only big thing that stands out to me that needs to be done lol.

pls 11-19-2010 06:38 PM

nope, haven't got it tune yet, just got a base map for it, so i can baby drive it. Gonna get it tune pretty soon.......As for 5 lug, it would be nice, but i see no use in it...

Scott53092 11-19-2010 06:47 PM

5 lug is just so you can say you have it haha, I'd love to have 5 lug and rock itr's. What are you going to have it tuned on? What hp you goin for, setting it at certain psi or just goin higher psi til you make a goal?

pls 11-19-2010 07:17 PM

i just gonna be boosting 8psi and doing a conservative tune, not really looking for big number. Might just get it tune on chrome or hondata.......for me, main reason for turbo is just for the BOV, i guess you can call me a RICER....lol

pls 11-20-2010 09:05 PM

Here is a little quick video of BOV, only on base map, so not really stepping on it......just a little sample....

Its not even tune, i got the basemap from the Tune shop, i'm planning to go get my car tune. Basemap was free. Needed the basemap, so i can drive the car to the CTR Dynosport, since i'm on 750cc injectors...

There still a couple things i want to change out before i get it tune.....
